HETA’s story
Free Apprenticeships Ads
Utilise our all in one careers portal to advertise apprenticeships or use our filtering system to find students with the exact skills and talents required.
Startingpoint enables employers and apprenticeship agencies to view the anonymised student profiles. See how they demonstrate and evidence the skills and experience you need to fill those roles. You can then approach potential students directly through our secure mentor-approved messaging system. The mentor will then ensure a smooth, safe interaction between you and the student.
Inspiring through Apprenticeships
Inspire students through the opportunity to experience the demands of a real working environment, giving them hands-on insight into your industry. Students will be in control and empowered to engage with your roles. The entire online apprenticeship platform is here to make the process simple and ultimately increase the number of positive outcomes.
Startingpoint provides students with an easy-to-use interface, making it straightforward to document their achievements. They can upload a variety of formats, including videos, photos, and PDFs, to display their skills, personality, and interests. This function is beneficial for all types of students, allowing them to fully present their diverse abilities.
Our platform motivates students to proactively shape their future careers. It supports protected and direct interactions between students, training organisations, and potential employers. This enhances the process of securing appropriate work placements. Not only does this approach save time, but it also effectively bridges the gap between students and opportunities in the job market.
Advice
& guidance
Share industry expertise and experience to inspire and inform students considering different career paths. We support the education sector to connect with apprenticeship agencies that are best placed to provide their students with real-world experience from those best placed to offer it.
Connecting safely with students
Our secure messaging system ensures the communication between you and the students is totally safeguarded. Any approach by any party must first be approved by the school mentor. All further communication does not need to be approved, but the mentor will receive a duplicate copy.
Startingpoint is fully encrypted with security measures in place to comply with GDPR and keep your data safe.
Web portal and mobile app
We understand that your time is precious. Startingpoint includes a web-based apprenticeship portal and mobile app to ensure you have the quickest way to list opportunities and engage with potential students.
